Amazing Opportunities ahead!

So I just had a great lunch meeting with Ryan Hinton a Diamond Level AdvoCare Advisor and the coach that got my coach Shelby involved in AdvoCare.  So if it weren't for him sharing with Shelby I  may not have ever heard about AdvoCare and started my journey!  He was such a pleasure to meet with.  I love that he wasn't pushy about the business, but wanted to see where I was in my progress and journey and tell me more about the business side of AdvoCare.  We talked about his family and mine and how he got started and how I got started.  It was a nice lunch.  I wanted to share about our lunch because if it weren't for someone sharing with him and his wife and then them sharing with Shelby then I wouldn't have known about it and so I want to share with you so we can keep the cycle going...well now I am just rambling.  A writer is one thing I am not lol

I love that I don't have to be a good "sales" person or put on parties or be pushy with AdvoCare.  I just use the products and then I am walking billboard because they work! I have had great results and I have seen a lot of my friends use the products and have amazing results. It isn't a "diet" it is a lifestyle.  One that I am glad I am a part of now.

You don't have to buy a bunch of products and hope to sell them.  You simply use word of mouth to tell people about the awesome opportunity there is by using and/or selling AdvoCare.  I love that he was a skeptic and didn't want much to do with it for 11 months when his wife got involved.  Now he and his wife are a Diamond Level team and helping others to reach their goals.  They are both stay at home parents to their son.  A dream of mine is to stay home and raise my girls.

There are different levels of AdvoCare and you do as little or as much as you want.  I started off just wanting to use the products and lose weight.  Now that I am 6 weeks in, I want to shout it from the roof top how amazing I feel and look.  I want everyone to know about AdvoCare and so here we go!

Here is some great information straight from the AdvoCare website.

I am excited to see where this leads me!  AdvoCare has already done amazing things in my life even if I go no farther up the ladder.  I have lost 13 pounds, close to 10 inches, gained energy and strength and confindence in myself that I can accomplish my weight loss goal of 39 pounds total.  Only 26 more to go!

24 DC results

So I realized I never posted my 24 DC final results!!!  Here they are! 

So I am laying it out there, telling you my weight and measurements so you can see for yourself my results.  I will also post a couple of pics.  I am still not where I want to be,  but I am 10 pounds and 8 inches closer than I was a month ago.  What are you waiting for????


Starting Date 5/5/14

That is amazing for 24 days!!!  I have never been one that eats healthy.  I love bread, pasta and carbs.  I am learning to eat new and better things, drinking more water and feeling amazing!  I have had to take sleeping pills for years just to be able to sleep at night and I am slowly weaning off of them because I am sleeping better and more soundly at night!  I have tried so many "diet" plans and failed at each of them.  But AdvoCare is different.  It isn't a diet, it is a lifestyle. I am not stopping now.  After finishing the 24DC I have continued doing the Max Phase (days 11-24) and will until I reach my goal weight.  I will do the cleanse every 90 days also.  

 I am also learning more about the business side of it and amazed at how easy it is to earn money.  I don't have to be a pushy sales person, beg people to host parties, spend a lot of money to get started or buy a lot of inventory.  This stuff sells itself!  If you are interested in starting your weight loss journey let me know.  

The most popular AdvoCare products are the ones that are a part of the 24 Day Challenge but they have so many more.  My husband isn't doing the challenge but loves the Spark and the Slam energy drinks.  Take a look at my site and all the products they have to offer.  www.advocare.com/140474547.

Ok so here are my 24 day challenge pics.  Like I said before I am no where near done with my journey but I am happy with my first 30 days.
